Hey there,

I've been on the site for a bit absorbing as much information as I can but I thought it was time to dive in and make an intro.

I don't have much experience in real estate investing, unless you count my own home, but I'm very interested in mainly buy and hold properties (for the passive income) with an open mind to other aspects of REI if they make sense. I'm teaming up with my father to do this and I'm eager to get started.

I've listened to every podcast here, read the UBG, and am interested in finding some REI meetups or clubs in my area to learn more and pick peoples brains. As I'm in the Northern Virginia/DC area and prices are much more than the ~$40k that some areas get, its a little daunting and I'm pretty nervous on getting started.

I'm looking forward to engaging on the site with all of you!
